The steward was standing outside the door.
"Esteemed wangfei, your servant …"
"Come in." Before the manager could finish his words, Yao Ziyan had already dragged him into the house.
The door was closed.
"Esteemed wangfei, it's still broad daylight, isn't that a bit too much?" The steward lowered his head, obviously wanting to watch and yet having the heart and courage of a thief.
Yao Ziyan lifted his chin, making him look straight at herself. The steward quickly glanced at him, then quickly lowered his head.
"Come and rub this wangfei's back." Yao Ziyan walked in front of him, took off her clothes, and casually stepped into the hot water.
The steward was initially hesitant, but Yao Ziyan began to wash herself in the hot water, splashing it all over him, "Don't worry, since the Lord Liu is here, the Prince won't be able to leave for more than two hours. A lot of things have been done. " She even gave him a flirtatious look.
The steward's eyes widened to the point that they were about to fall out of the window. He couldn't hold it in any longer.
In the end, how could a young man in his early thirties be able to endure such temptation?
He quickly took off his clothes and entered the hot water.
When Yuwen Chenglian and Liu Yuan had finished talking, it was already two hours later. His good wife had long washed him and made him full as a sleeping beauty.
Yuwen Chenglian impatiently jumped onto the bed the moment he arrived. "My beloved concubine, have you missed this king?"
Yao Ziyan looked as if she woke up from her sleep and was greatly shocked, "I hate you, Royal Highness. I was scared to death by you."
"What beautiful dreams did you have? Did you dream of This King?" Hehe, "Yuwen Chenglian's brain had already started to imagine things. With a" Okay "from Yao Ziyan, whose face was completely red, he quickly took off her shoes and entered the blanket.
It was another chaotic scene.
After messing around for two hours, Yuwen Chenglian finally tired and fell asleep.
Yao Ziyan slept for a while, but woke up early. She got off the bed completely naked, and walked to the dressing table with her bare feet.
The bronze mirror reflected her exquisite and graceful figure, protruding from the front and back. Such a figure would make even a woman feel ashamed, let alone a man who would be interested in a woman at first sight.
[Didn't that steward, who claimed that he had nothing to do with meat and meat apart from his wife, also fall to her petticoat?]
Humph! Men are all the same!
Suddenly, a point of silver white light flashed past his head, Yao Ziyan's face shivered, he immediately went over to the mirror to take a closer look.
At some point, there were a few silver lines on her head. She took a look and saw that there were even more lines on her hair.
What was going on, why did so much white hair suddenly appear?
Yao Ziyan panicked.
She was completely lost.
What's going on? How is this possible? I clearly took the medicine on time. How can I suddenly grow white hair?
When she looked more carefully, there were several thin lines appearing at the corner of her eyes. The moment she stared at the mirror, the fine lines immediately increased in number, as did her white hair.
Yao Ziyan retreated a few steps in panic!
Old? Was he going to turn into that ghost again?
In Yao Ziyan's mind, she recalled the time when she was struck by the "One Night Old Man". That old woman with completely white hair and a face full of wrinkles, she was so frightened that she fell to the ground.
At this time, Yuwen Chenglian, who was on the bed, let out a voice that sounded like he was sleep talking. It was as if he was in a dream as he and Yao Ziyan were having fun, calling out to each other with ecstasy.
Yao Ziyan was afraid that he would wake up at this moment, and was even more afraid that he would see her like this.
At the end of the cabinet was a small box. Her hands were shaking as she opened it.
"Dammit, why did I hide it so tightly!"
She anxiously opened the box and saw the green porcelain bottle inside. As if she saw her lifesaver, she unstoppered the stopper and poured out three pills before stuffing them into her mouth. She did not care about what Ye Haitang had told her before, she could only consume one at a time.
After swallowing the pill, a sweet taste started to spread in his mouth. Yao Ziyan stared at his own reflection in the mirror, but the image in the mirror did not change at all.
She became even more anxious.
After eating another two in a row, she ate too many in one go. The sweet taste in her mouth suddenly became bitter. She ran to the table and drank three cups of water before the bitterness faded away.
When she turned to look in the mirror, her white hair had turned black.
Yao Ziyan was ecstatic, she went closer to look and the lines were also gone.
Great.
It was a false alarm.
Yao Ziyan's nervous state of mind finally relaxed.
"My beloved concubine, where are you?" Yuwen Chenglian called her again and hurriedly put everything back into the drawer. Then, he casually locked the door and ran back onto the bed.
"Your Highness, I'm here."
Yuwen Chenglian looked like he had just woken up, and held her in his arms, "Why did his beloved concubine run away?"
"Not at all, I drank a cup of water."
"Hehe, This King is thirsty. How about you feed water to This King?" Yuwen Chenglian hugged her, and stuck close to her. Yao Ziyan's eyes hid a hint of pride, and kissed him on the lips, "I'll go pour some water right now."
Then he jumped off the bed.
Every move in the Wei Wang Residence was being monitored.
The scout passed the situation in the Duke Palaces to the contact and quickly sent it to the palace, to Xiao Ruyue.
Xiao Ruyue looked at the slip of paper inside the bamboo tube, and then took off the lid of the censer, and placed the slip of paper inside, which quickly turned into ashes.
"That pair from the Wei Wang Manor. Haven't you had enough fun?" Liangqiu Yayin sat on the right side of the table and asked after taking a sip of tea.
Xiao Ruyue nodded her head, "Not only is Yao Ziyan always with Yuwen Chenglian, she doesn't even let the overseer of the Duke Palaces off."
"Puff" Lu Yi laughed out from the side, "This Wei Wangfei sure is hungry to the point of not choosing to eat."
As soon as she said this, the room went silent.
"What? Did I say something wrong?" Lu Yi was a little careful.
Xiao Ruyue and Liangqiu Yayin looked at each other and laughed out at the same time.
"No, you finally used the right word once," Lu Yi replied. After Yin Lin finished speaking, she started laughing from head to toe, almost to the point of breaking out in laughter.
Hunger doesn't always choose to eat. Who wouldn't?
Xiao Ruyue also laughed, but that laughter did not reach her eyes.
Yao Ziyan, ah, Yao Ziyan, you deserved to die.
"According to the effects of the two medicines, Yao Ziyan has been tormenting herself everyday, so there should be something wrong with her now, and in order to hide her age, she will definitely increase the quantity of the 'Rejuvenation Pill'." Liangqiu Yayin thought for a moment, and said slowly.
Xiao Ruyue immediately understood what she meant, "With Ye Haitang's personality, since she has been controlling Yao Ziyan, she wouldn't give her too many pills. It will be about time for Yao Ziyan to finish the 'Spring-Returning Immortal Pill' that Ye Haitang had given her in the next few days. "
Therefore, the time had come.
It was time for Yao Ziyan and Ye Haitang to tear each other up.
"Yin Lin, send me your orders. Once Wei Wangfei is ready to leave the house, I will immediately come to report it." Xiao Ruyue said with a stern expression.
Hearing that, Yin Lin immediately retracted her smile, and replied: That's right, then why have you been staring at the glazed pavilion for the past few days?
"Yin Lin, don't worry. The glazed pavilion will have people watching us." Liangqiu Yayin threw a comforting smile at Yin Lin, "Ye Haitang won't be able to escape from my palm!"
Yin Lin nodded.
This was the first time she felt murderous intent coming from Liangqiu Yayin.
Ya Yin had always looked kind and gentle, but she never thought that even her ruthlessness would make people fear her.
"It seems like the only thing I can do is make a few more snacks in case I need them."
"Smart girl, I didn't love you for nothing." Xiao Ruyue gave her an appreciative smile.
"Of course, I've always been smart." Lu Yi's face was filled with pride.
Xiao Ruyue and the other two looked at each other and laughed, but this time they laughed.
Lu Yi was so angry that her face turned red and she stomped her feet to express her displeasure.
At dusk.
Shen Liang, who had not appeared for a day, rushed back to the palace. When he entered, Xiao Ruyue and the others could smell the smell of blood.
He, who had always been meticulous, was now in a sorry state.
When Xiao Ruyue saw him like that, she excitedly put down her books and stood up, "What happened?"
Seeing him like this, there was no need to guess to know that something had happened.
Moreover, it was a major event.
It was impossible for someone like Shen Liang, who has seen much of the world, to be in such a difficult situation with anxiety written all over his face.
Shen Liang slowed his breathing and knelt in front of Xiao Ruyue without uttering a word.
"Get up and speak. "What's going on?" Xiao Ruyue looked at Yin Lin, and Yin Lin walked forward to help Shen Liang up.
But he refused to get up.
Liangqiu Yayin also stood up, she looked like she effortlessly pulled Shen Liang up, causing Shen Liang to be startled.
"You have internal injuries?" Liangqiu Yayin placed her hand on Shen Liang's pulse, and slightly furrowed her brows, "Your body isn't weak, how did you receive such a heavy injury?"
Being stared at like that by Liangqiu Yayin, Shen Liang could not hold it in and slowly spoke.
"Today, when Lord Xiao was on his way back to his residence after finishing his work, he was ambushed by a group of black-clothed people. Those people used the tactic of luring the tiger out of the mountain. The sedan bearers and their bodyguards were all killed. Those men in black were approaching in full fury. I, I was unaware that I had been ambushed. "
"I was talking about the Xiao Shang Shu then! How is he? " Xiao Ruyue's face changed drastically, he was so anxious that he almost called out his nephew's name.
Jing Yu was the only son of the Xiao family, what would his grandmother do if something happened to him?
What about the Xiao family!
"Lord Xiao is safe and sound, just a bit frightened." Shen Liang was obviously very glad when he said this. After he finished speaking, he knelt on one knee and said, "Empress, Shen Liang's guards were weak and almost betrayed your words. I beg the Empress to punish him!"
It was a false alarm.
Hearing that Xiao Jingyu was alright, Xiao Ruyue finally relaxed and took a step forward to help Shen Liang up.
"General Shen, you have done well in this matter."
"Empress!"
"If you were not here, His Majesty would have lost his right arm and the people would have lost a good official. General Shen, this is all because of you. " Xiao Ruyue said sincerely, her smile was shallow and indifferent, making people feel at ease.
"As for those sedan bearers and guards who died in vain, the imperial government will naturally help their families and pacify the orphans. None of this is your fault. No matter how strong a person is, it is difficult for two fists to fight against four hands. "
Shen Liang was quiet for a long time as he stared at Xiao Ruyue.
